One reason I love St. Paul, MN

I'm going to start a list of why I love the Twin Cities -- starting with this post. One thing I love about St. Paul, MN are the awesome thrift stores. Particularly Valu Thrift at the Sun Ray strip mall off of 94 East. It's seriously the biggest thrift store I've ever been in and I always find something cool there. The secret's out!

Here's my latest find: a vintage "prairie-punk" plaid top with accented shoulders (something I'm obsessed with right now, thanks to designer Balmain). I also purchased the gold brioche you see pinned on the ruffles along with a vintage gold necklace w/ a Victorian silhouetted pendant. All for the price of $12.79!

I discover out of the blue while trying to take a photo of my top, that my phone software was upgraded and it now has the capability of taking video:
